- Sub: Strange Launch Prob
-
- I am having a problem that is driving me insane, and hope you can help me!
-
- I have been having problems running my MacApp application on a particular
- CPU (Mac IIcx with 8 MBytes of memory and a 210 MB Rodime Cobra disk). The
- application works fine on my development machine (a IIx with 8 Meg and a
- Micronet 330 disk), but the second time I run it on the other machine, it won't
- launch from the Finder. It appears that it begins to launch, then sits there
- for about 5 seconds. It then exits to Finder and I get an error message saying
- something to the effect 'the application could not be opened/printed (-13)'.
- Then I select the application, do a 'Get Info' and look at the partition size.
- It looks fine. I set the suggested size to a big number (say 4000), close the
- Get Info window, and try to run the application again. Same result, except now
- I get the error code of -199 - which is a resource error, I believe "map
- inconsistent with operation" if you believe the System Errors DA. Then if I do
- a 'Get Info' on my application, both the minimum memory size and the suggested
- memory size are 'n/a', and I can no longer change the suggested memory size (or
- I can change it, but it gives me an error when it tries to update the
- resource).
-
- If I run the application off a Syquest that is attached to the CX it works with
- no apparent problems.
-
- I have reformatted the disk and reloaded System 6.0.5 more than once with no
- change in the behavior.
-
- Interesting thing, my supervisor here has the exact same problem with two
- applications: Adobe Illustrator 3.0 and Quark Express (I think). After
- spending a day trying to fix the problem by reformatting, reloading systems,
- turning INITs off, etc, he reports that he gave up and just runs these
- applications from a different disk, where they work fine.
-
- Any ideas anyone?
-
- thanks,
